PlayStation 4 getting four PlayStation 3/Vita gems: Flower, Flow, Sound Shapes, and Escape Plan

Developer Sony Santa Monica is porting a handful of popular PlayStation 3 titles to the next-gen PlayStation 4, and if you own them on Vita or PlayStation 3, you already own them on the upcoming console.

Sony revealed that it is moving Flower, Flow, Sound Shapes, and Escape Plan to PlayStation 4. Previously, these were all downloadable PlayStation Network titles for the PS3 and Vita systems. With Cross-Buy, Sony’s program where you buy it once and own it on multiple devices, anyone who owns those games will get them automatically on the next-gen console. Microsoft currently has no similar program, and Nintendo famously continues to resell its older titles.
